I had been enjoying the fresh sweet corn straight off the cob all week and I was looking to change it up a bit. I also had some black beans that needed using and I thought that a corn and black bean quesadilla filled with melting cheese would hit the spot. It was sounding pretty much like a quesadilla filled with a corn and black bean salsa and some cheese so I decided to make a big bowl of corn and black bean salsa for the filling. I like quesadillas because they are simple, quick and tasty and these were no different. You really can't go wrong with the combination of sweet corn, creamy black beans with some chili heat and melted cheese toasted in tortillas! The corn and black salsa was also great by itself and it will likely disappear quickly.

Corn and Black Bean Quesadillas

ingredients

2 tortillas

2 handfuls cheese such as cheddar or jack etc. (grated)

1/2 cup black bean salsa (see below)

directions

Melt a touch of butter in a pan.

Place a tortilla into the pan.

Cover the tortilla with the corn and black bean salsa and top with a handful of cheese and the other tortilla.

Cook until the quesadilla is golden brown on both sides and the cheese is melted.

Tip: Place a plate onto the quesadilla and flipped it from the pan to the plate and then slide it back into the pan to flip the quesadilla.

So much goodness here Kevin. I am playing catch up with all the posts that I didn't have time to check out earlier in the week. You have my taste buds tingling. I may pick some of my corn today just so I can try out that dip or yummo these quesadillas!

I am in love with this recipe! I made these a few weeks ago and my husband and I both really enjoyed them. I have since shared the recipe with many of my friends. And, I must point out that I think these quesadillas are delicious just as they are, no need to add a thing!

I made these last night and followed your recipe exactly. They were DELICIOUS and I'm not even really into quesadillas - I just needed something quick. I wouldn't hesitate making these for family/friends. I am loving your blog!!
